Introduction
Welcome to the TVPA Archives page of Greater Carolinas Womens Center, an initiative of USCRI. Here, we provide a comprehensive collection of resources related to the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA). Our mission is to empower and support survivors of human trafficking and create awareness about this pressing issue. Through this page, we aim to provide you with the necessary information to better understand the TVPA and its implications on the lives of survivors.
Understanding TVPA
The Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) is a landmark legislation enacted in the United States to prevent human trafficking, prosecute traffickers, and protect survivors. It was first signed into law in 2000 and has since been reauthorized multiple times, demonstrating the government's commitment to combating this grave violation of human rights.
Key Objectives of TVPA
The TVPA primarily aims to:
- Prevent human trafficking through public awareness campaigns and educational initiatives.
- Investigate and prosecute traffickers, ensuring that they are held accountable for their actions.
- Protect and support victims of trafficking, offering them essential services, such as shelter, healthcare, legal assistance, and counseling.
- Collaborate with international organizations and governments to address human trafficking at a global level.
